I think that will be rather difficult. For a strong individual from that generation to accept he needs help before he himself realizes it. He probably feels the gains does not out weight the loss in terms of dignity and integrity. Alas.
That does not imply one should not try if one feels the gains out weight the losses. Its a complex, multi factorial matter.
What does he need ? What makes him happy ? What is he willing to scarifies ?
This is a topic where Internet advice are very difficult to give IMO.
